One of the first set of threes on my 2015 list is sweaters... and it just so happens I have three on the needles. Obviously, this does not commit me to finishing those three sweaters (how funny would that be-- to actually finish my WiPs? I wouldn't know what to do with all those needles!) but one of them is only sans manches (those are sleeves for those of you not accessing your high school french) so I figured I could start there and get ahead of the curve.

Knit in the round to the v-neck/sleeve split from a CustomFit pattern (actually my first-- I talk a big game, but this was the very first time I actually clicked on "generate my pattern" or whatever), and then the sleeves are picked up from the arms and knit down in short rows. I managed to do it backwards on the first (left) sleeve-- probably because I picked up instead of picked up and knit? Anyway, this meant that either I needed to rip back the sleeve for a fourth time (I had sleeve issues. That should probably be "have sleeve issues." Sigh.) or decide to live with an impromptu "design element" of a random garter ridge at the sleeve cap. I'm lazy, and this is a sweatshirt-style sweater anyway, so...

Left Sleeve

I think I managed to replicate my mistake on the right sleeve so that it's a match. Why is it so much harder to do something wrong on purpose?
